iPhone Dev team released a new version of Redsn0w over the weekend, which makes it a lot easier to downgrade pre-A5 devices such as iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 2G from iOS 6.0 to iOS 5.x.x using the direct restore option.

In this guide, we show you how to downgrade your iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS or iPod touch 4G from iOS 6.0 to iOS 5.x.x using Redsn0w.

iPhone Dev team has just published a post titled “Blob-o-riffic”, which provides details about downgrading from iOS 6 to iOS 5.x.x.

iPhone Dev team has warned that iPhone 4S, iPad 3 (and some iPad 2) users won’t be able to downgrade from iOS 6 to iOS 5.1.1 once Apple stops signing iOS 5.1.1 and will be stuck until a jailbreak for iOS 6 is released.

The new version will now explicitly ask users of A4 or lower powered iOS devices if they want to inject rocky-racoon using the DFU ramdisk method or the backup/restore method. It also includes a fix for the iBooks issue for iPhone 3GS with oldroom.
